Also take a look at listings package

\documentclass[11pt,titlepage,openright]{report}
\usepackage{listings}
\begin{document}
\chapter{Source Code}
\lstset{
  language=C,
  basicstyle=\footnotesize,
  labelstyle=\tiny,%
  labelstep=1
}
\lstinputlisting {malayalam.c}
\end{document}

This will typeset malayalam.c with keyword highlighting and small line
numbers. Just give the path for the source file and all you have to do is
to rerun the latex to get updated dvi when ever you change the source.

Read the manual for more options.
